The trick is similar to what Ryukishi07 did with his secret letter in Higurashi.

Go to the music box after finishing the game, and play the last track (弦楽四重奏曲第一番~). Keep replaying the track until the background graphic turns into a character tips screen.

Spoiler for background:

All you have to do next is go into the TIPs screen from the main menu and execute the characters in the same pattern as the background image, and the game will automatically start the hidden tea party.

Oh, i saw this screen with Beatrice, but i didn't attract attention on it and started to replay all tracks in the musicbox Thanks

Ummm...I found the opening song for this on Esnips. If you wanna listen to it, go here. You have to be a member to download it. Sorry to be off-topic but this song is REALLY addicting in the beginning.

Finally finish reading the story...took a while as I kept sidetracking on other games

I'm not totally sold on the witch idea yet...this being the fact that alot of deaths aren't accounted for, like Sushi-Y already suggested. Also, as the premise of the story does somewhat resemble Agatha Christie's mystery, "Ten Little Indians", there is one thing to really consdier:

Spoiler for Umineko + Agatha Christie:

In these closed off island murder mystery, it is important to have a doctor-ish character, so we know at whattime the characters died and thus creates all theses questions about alibi. In Ten Little Indians, the real culprit blackmailed the doctor, so when the real culprit faked his own death (to let the rest of the cast and the readers to think that he's not the real culprit), the doctor was there to back up the story. Of course, soon after the doctor was killed by the real culprit, so no one knew about that the real culprit was actually still alive. This enabled the real culprit to do whatever he wants in the shadows, while the remaining surviors can only point the finger at each other

In the end, it's like Higurashi, that in the first epsiode we are introduced to the story and can only make all sorts of assumptions. If Umineko is following the footsteps of Higurashi, then some of the info that were presented might not be as accurate as we think.

Back in Onikakushi there was no Shion present and her existence changes lots of things

We have the same here
people who might show up in the next chapters and were not present in this first chapter

Like,
Those servants who were not in the island at the time of the family meeting (Manon and Renon? forgot their names)
Kyrie's daughter
Kinzou's late wife (well, that'd be bizarre, so no)
Maria's father
Nanjou's son

If I were to guess I'd say it's Rosa with the help of people that have not appeared yet
It's kind of obvious that Maria is being deceived by someone who says he/she is Beatrice and maybe she is helping the "witch" to make some impossible events happen (like that letter that appeared out of nowhere near the end in Kinzou's room), and there's anyone better to deceive Maria than her own mother.
